RIP TO ONE OF THE GREATEST TO EVER DO IT

I know all y’all loved Dolly, but I don’t think I can fully express how important she was to us here in East Tennessee. She will always be an icon for showing us how to embrace our better selves & be good to each other, representing our region with pride & grace, and modeling relentless generosity.
